Help Is On The Way

INITIAL CONSULTATION – 30 MINUTES, COMPLIMENTARY
Get to know us, for free.  Chemistry is important, not just in the lab.  Let’s find out how we can best work together to support you at any point along the road to college.  

EARLY GUIDANCE – GRADE 9
A year-long process, during which we work with you on a flexible, four-year roadmap, including expert advice on course selection, activities, and summer plans.  We develop an action plan, including recommendations for coursework and testing, and begin work on an activity sheet.  Uncover interests and unlock your full potential on the path to creating a unique and cohesive story.  

EARLY GUIDANCE – GRADE 10
For students who have already undertaken our grade 9 Early Guidance, or who prefer to begin with a three-year plan.  We clarify and make recommendations as course selection choices increase in complexity, activity exploration is refined, and summer plans take on importance. We develop an admissions process action plan, including testing and campus visits, and work on the activity sheet, unique to you.  You will uncover interests and strengths, and begin to develop a compelling story.  

GRADE 11 GUIDANCE
We support you as the college admissions process intensifies.  We review course selections, uncover broader strengths in activities, and advise on formative summer plans.  We develop an admissions process action plan, including testing and additional campus visits, and work with you on the activity sheet, unique to you.  You will develop and later refine a compelling story, which will be the foundation for your college application.  

GRADE 12 GUIDANCE
We create an action plan, with specific due dates for key components, including testing and application deadlines.  We support you in requesting recommendations, finalizing the activity sheet, reviewing the target college application list and transcript, deciding which application decision plans to pursue, selecting test scores, and developing a strategy for continued communication with target colleges. At admissions time, we assist with evaluation of offers, wait list strategies, and notification of non-selected colleges. 

COMMON APPLICATION or UCAS APPLY ONLY
We assist you with the intricacies of the Common Application or UCAS APPLY.  Give yourself the confidence of knowing that academic and personal accomplishments are best reflected, within the tight word and character limits. Review of Personal Statement, Common App Essay and college-specific Supplemental Essays not included, but can be added at an hourly rate.

COMPLETE APPLICATION REVIEW
Are you ready to press “submit?” We will raise the red flag if anything is missing from your student’s online application, review essays, and make specific suggestions for improvement.

COLLEGE READINESS EVALUATION
We get to know you and begin to frame you from the perspective of a college admissions officer.  We create a customized evaluation of your college readiness, taking into account transcripts, test scores (if any), activities, academic interests and personal goals.  Discover where you are in the process and what lies ahead. 

HOURLY CONSULTATIONS
We also work on an hourly basis with our clients. Contact us to learn more.

Without you... I would have been lost. You are the best and just so so good at your job. I can't thank you enough, it's been such a great journey with you... -MH, Grade 12 student... I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for all the help and support you provided me with while completing my application and especially with writing my Personal Statement. I feel confident that with your help I was able to write a statement that points out my strengths while also showing my potential and passion for the courses I am applying for. -RG, Grade 12 student... Thank you once more for all of your help on the supplements and the Common App essay. I am really excited about the outcomes! Without your assistance this process would have been a lot more difficult and most likely the results would have been completely different. Thank you! -FB, Grade 12 student... Once more, your comments confirm that we are working with the "right" college counselor - thanks for your thoughtful input! ​ -TB, Parent of Grade 12 student... Thank you so much for your wise advice. I really appreciate it. It is always useful to look outwards for suggestions and ways to move forward, and you really helped us. -AF, Parent of Grade 10 student... Thanks again for making time for me! I really appreciate it and am over the moon to have such a wonderful counselor. -RM, Grade 11 student... It is a great privilege that you help (our son) with your outstanding knowledge. -DB, Parent of Grade 12 student... Thanks for working with (our daughter) on her essay brainstorming today. I know she was dreading the process, but when I picked her up after your session, she was happy and excited for tomorrow's session! Nothing short of miraculous! -NN, Parent of Grade 11 student... Thank you so much for today’s work. It's been great fun! ​ -ML, Gap Year student... Thank you! Once again it was most interesting talking to you. You gave me a lot of good perspectives to build upon and I appreciate your sensitive approach which makes a big difference. -EH, Parent of Grade 12 student... First of all, I need to thank you for your unending patience with my daughter. She was accepted to three of the four colleges to which she applied. Not only was she elated, but we as parents were as well. Phew! That certainly guaranteed a merry Christmas for the whole family! -NN, Parent of grade 12 student... We enjoy working with you and see great value in it. -TT, Parent of Grade 9 student... I have finally heard back from Cambridge - they invited me for an interview! But a big part of my application quality is due to your help! My application is definitely stronger now. It has been a pleasure to work with you. ​ -YD, grade 12 student
We're proud of what students and parents say about us.
